Vitamin drops at 6months

Hi there has anyone heard of given your 6 month old baby vitamin drops. I seen it write somewhere that you should give them the drops from 6 months till 5 years.  My other son is 8 years old and they never told us back then about given drops is it a new thing. Can anyone help me xxx

  • where I live we get given nhs healthy start vitamin drops which contain vitamins a c and d for babies 1month old to 5 years. It is more important if you are brestfeeding as vitamin d doesn’t pass into breastmilk but formula has vitamins added in so not as necessary to supplement. Maybe ask your health visitor if the drops are available and if they feel your baby will benefit from vitamin supplements
